Fedora Magazine ☛ Fedora Magazine: 4 cool new projects to try in Copr for March 2024
Copr is a build-system for anyone in the Fedora community. It hosts thousands of projects for various purposes and audiences. Some of them should never be installed by anyone, some are already being transitioned to the official Fedora GNU/Linux repositories, and the rest are somewhere in between. Copr gives you the opportunity to install 3rd party software that is not available in Fedora GNU/Linux repositories, try nightly versions of your dependencies, use patched builds of your favorite tools to support some non-standard use-cases, and just experiment freely.
This article takes a closer look at interesting projects that recently landed in Copr.
